Bot @ room temp. Orange chocolate? heheheh, I’d like to taste that. Its just a big fat terribly on style cross between an impy IPA and a black IPA. Go figger. Perhaps the orange chocolate is in the sweet nose only? Mouth coating oily IPA.

Clear brown with light carbonation, sizeable foamy head. Aroma of hops with faint orange. More like a brown ale than an IPaA. Bitter finish with orange peel. Not so great, but ok.

Tap@BA Vasagatan. Brunsvart vätska. Liknar mer en black-ipa i utseendet. Framträdande doft av choklad. Grape och citrus lurar i bakgrunden. Påminner om en Chocolate Stout, sade någon i sällskapet. Tydlig sädessmak och mer choklad. En lätt fruktig friskhet av blodapelsin kan anas.

Sample at SBWF 2015. Amber with a creamy head. On the sweet side with orange, caramel, hops and chocolate. The body was medium as was the bitterness.

Flaska från SB, import. Mahognyfärgad vätska med krämigt skum. Djup söt doft av apelsinchoklad, citrusmarmelad och karamell. Seg kladdig vätska. Tung, djup söt smak. Lite DIPA-ish men lite väl kladdig och söt. Balanserad bra beska. Gott!

Tap at the Thomas Creek Pub in the Greenville airport (which isn’t on ratebeer, so I guess I’d better add it) - surprised this is not.entered as a black ipa, considering it is dark brown and has a lot of black ipa.characteristics - a fair amount of roast and chocolate character - some medium.sweet toffee notes - the bitterness of the malt adds an acidity that works well with the.bitterness and.citric character of the hops used - some tobacco - the roast is a little much on the back end, but this is pretty solid.
